I am perpetually curious about EME.  What kind of money are we talking
about for that folding dish, preamp, tripod, etc.?

My home is a very poor location for VHF+, but I own a pickup and go
roving so I could definitely take this kind of setup portable.  I'd even
be willing to rotate by hand if needed.
